First, a side comment about languages. I was taught British English and there, a T is a T and a D is a D, but in American English that distinction is minimal. So this headline, when spoken, could easily give the illusion that I ride horses. I have horses, but I just keep them and spoil them, I do not ride them. But that is a side issue. The relevance here is that since I was sick most of February with a little horse farm, I still had to do all the heavy manual labor that goes with it.
I did not get much writing done during February because of my prolonged influenza (in spite of my vaccination) and its slow recovery. I was not able to fully disengage from my work during my illness because we are a fairly lean outfit here in Maine. That took a lot out of me.
So please accept my apologies and know that I have several pieces percolating and started that will be published in the coming days.
So I did not fall off the face of the earth, and I did not lose my desire to share my experiences and reflections as a country doctor in this fairly remote area. Stay tuned.
Glad to see you back in the saddle. :)
